These creamy mashed potatoes made with orange juice and ground cinnamon are a tasty side dish that are perfect for weeknight meals or holiday gatherings.
If you're like me, you like your meals to go together. By that I mean whatever main course I'm serving I try to use the same flavors in my vegetables and side dishes that would compliment the main entree.
While I was making the ham last week, I not only made the carrots to go with it, but I made these Orange-Cinnamon Mashed Potatoes.
They were so good and the ground cinnamon and orange juice really gave the potatoes a nice flavor.
How do you make Orange Cinnamon Mashed Potatoes?
For this recipe you'll need red potatoes. ground cinnamon, butter, orange juice and parsley. Wash the potato skins with a vegetable brush under cold water.
Leaving the skins on, cut potatoes into 2-inch thick chunks making them uniform in size; then place in a large pot and cover with water.
Bring the potatoes to a boil over high heat and allow to cook until fork tender; approximately 15-20 minutes. Drain the water and place the potatoes back in the pot.
Add the cinnamon, butter, orange juice and parsley; mash well using a potato masher or electric mixer.
